			<content type="html"><![CDATA[<p>Hi and welcome. This message was received from pirvan, another user from this forum.</p><p>Anyway, when you get it, spray some hair spray on the bed, then put the glass on top.&nbsp; Wait a few minutes, then heat up the bed, wait for about 15 minutes, then let it cool down.&nbsp; The glass will stick to the bed. <br />Then spray a thin layer of hairspray on the surface, heat the bed up, and let the spray dry.&nbsp; You can the print on that bed and your prints will stick very well.&nbsp; You only need to spray a bit more when you see the print lifting.&nbsp; I can usually do about 10 prints before I need to spray again.&nbsp; Much better&nbsp; (and cheaper) than Kapton.</p><p>I followed this steps (with the adding that I sprayed much much more spray) and, after having incredibile adhesion problem, last night I had to let the bed cool so I can take the print from it. Also, please note that bed adhesion will increase with the printings, mostly because a thin layer of ABS will remain on the bed, incresing adhesion.</p>]]></content>

			<content type="html"><![CDATA[<p>Greetings, mechanical engineer here who has been working with additive manufactured metals (powder based laser sintering) in my job for a couple years but wanted to be able to dabble at home too.&nbsp; Just got my Solidoodle Press, so far mostly positive experience (once I figure out how to solve the bed adhesion issue I have when using Repetier...probably don&#039;t have my Slic3r settings right.&nbsp; Haven&#039;t had that problem with Soliprint.)&nbsp; Anyway, hello all, and looking forward to much exchange of information.&nbsp; I went with the Press because I frankly wanted to test where the industry was at on desktop &quot;plug and play&quot; at a price point that is going after mass-market... have to say, my Press was pretty much that, I was printing things after doing only a z-axis cal.&nbsp; Some larger prints were having problems stemming from the limited control in Soliprint, which is why I am having &quot;growing pains&quot; using Repetier at the moment.</p>]]></content>
